Spring-loaded steampunk spex
These spring-loaded steampunk spectacles are the mutt's nuts -- I would wear them every day, until they blew a spring and gouged out one of my eyes. Seriously -- I can't wait for ubiquitous 3D printers so I can order a pair of these.Link
When you close them the temple arms retract and the ear hoops pivot under for compact(ish) storage. Also, the bridge (the part that rests on your nose), is spring loaded, extending another few cm when worn.Brass, bronze, stainless steel, copper, plastic lenses, plastic, springs, screws, nuts, nickel silver
